embassy in benghazi, libya. now you have army chaplain wesley smith delivering the benediction at the end of the ceremony. those killed were u.s. ambassador chris stevens, sean smith, glen doherty, and tyrone woods. >> very powerful words from secretary clinton, who was basically saying the libyans did not trade the tyranny of a dictator for the tyranny of a mob. indeed, you're watching live pictures at andrews air force base. let's get to john howard now in washington to get his take on all of this. john, it was a very solemn and very moving moment. >> exactly right. both president obama and secretary of state hillary clinton offered tributes to each of the men, told a little about them, their service especially. the two former navy s.e.a.l.s in iraq and afghanistan. and cast their loss of life in the tradition of american service around the world. trying to leave the world a little bit better place. that's what they were. that's who we are as americans. he said america will never forfeit its role in world affa

even as president obama and secretary of state clinton paid tribute to the four americans slain in benghazi earlier this week, the administration is at least trying to slow down the spread of these anti-american protests across the world. they disclosed today in that effort that they had asked google and youtube to review their terms of use to see if this anti-muslim film violated those terms of use. the request was made on tuesday night as that violence was taking place. it was only disclosed today. it appears so far that youtube is not taking the video down, although they have said they are restricting access in some countries. this is a situation where the administration is not in control of events. they're trying to do whatever they can to slow down the violence. >> it seems to me to just blame the video is really misguided. it was september 11th. there's clearly a coordination to get us on september 11th. >> well, you may think it's misguided, maria, but i think the administration believes, and there are a lot of other people who believe this video was, in fact, the cause of these prot

there's a lot of worry that that attack in benghazi did involve terrorist elements. we have a big problem on our hand. i think, larry as well, we have to focus first on reinforcing embassy security and convince ing democratically elected leaders in the arab world to stand up to these forces and have to work on the president of egypt. president morsi has not denounced the protests and violation of our embassy in then kind of terms we would want him to. i can only gather what president obama meant was ally is a specific term. treaty ally. japan, south korean countries. egypt is a friend to the united states and we have a working relationship with the new egyptian government but we have a lot of differences, too. we've seen that in the way that government has reacted to the attacks on our own em bassty. >> the guy basically hasn't apologized for anything. who knows what he's doing in the background. he may be supporting this. i think those are really important points, nick burns. back to john. what does this do in two ways, number one, israeli relations? this is also pa

the violence in benghazi erupting after a film produced by a developer. it is a movie not flattering to the religion. all of this horror and ugliness over a movie that without these horrible scenes most of us would never have heard of let alone watched. i return to a discussion we had earlier. why do we remain so dependent on middle eastern oil. a perceived insult in a small film spurs all of this and we depend on them for energy in this country. if this is not a wakeup call i don't know what is. why not allow the keystone pipeline with canada which is our friend and would create more domestic oil or how about an energy policy which requires natural gas. all of this doesn't mean we can't still pursue clean energy ideas? isn't that better than depending on a region that does this because of a movie? it seems to me this is where policy and businesses can work together. it is not happening and the situation has become deadly. it may not be the last time. before we take a look at the day on wall street today where we had gains a lot of cautiousness ahead of t
